Good evening.
I'd like to have everyone's opinion on an idea myself and a fellow Dale fan came up with.
I don't post on here often but you may or may not know me better as "Jonny Vimto" on twitter.
If you post often on twitter you will be well aware of the loveable Spanishdale, who's dream it is to come and watch the mighty Dale one day.
I asked him casually on twitter about it the other day offering him full board at my gaff if he could enquire about the flights.
He gracefully turned my offer down, I think he was a little embarrassed or maybe cannot afford the flights (total guess btw)
I got chatting to Darren Roy or @Dazzler36 on twitter (Sorry Darren don't know your UN on here) and we thought it would be a lovely gesture if a few of us could put our hand in our pocket and try and get the lad over here.
Darren has got the bare bones of a GoFundMe page ready to go but just wanted to gauge everyone's
opinion on here first.
If it did get off the ground then it would be lovely for the lad to have a weekend watching the Dale and maybe meet the players and have a tour of the ground etc.
Just a quick ball park figure, Sept flights to Manchester and back are £100.
Anyway, your thoughts please.
Up the Dale.

Great achievement! I think the iFollow subscription is a good idea on top of the cost of his trip and some merchandise if it will stretch that far. | |

Agree about the iFollow subscription, but don't think he'll have a problem with the merchandise stretching that far - looks about a size M? |  |

Sorry it's been a while since the last update.
We raised just short of £500.
SpanishDale or Jesús Sanchez to give him his full name is chuffed to bits.
We have sent him the equivalent of £110 today from
the fund via Western Union so he can watch the games live on iFollow.
He has never owned a passport believe it or not, but off the back of our generosity has gone and got one! He has proudly sent me a picture of it on WhatsApp and has ensured me he will be choosing a game to attend over the next few weeks.
When we know exactly when he's coming we'll update you further.
As I've mentioned previously, if anyone wants to be part of our WhatsApp group then drop me a PM or contact me on twitter ( @Bluejonnyvimto). We have 3 exiles in the group now along with a few other fans and it's been good chatting to them all.
Thanks again all for your support.

Hi everyone. I've met SpanishDale today.
I'm in Spain visiting family near to Benidorm. Have been speaking to Jesús on WhatsApp and over the course of a couple of days he agreed to come down and meet me. (He lives 97 miles away).
His cousin drove him from Albacetè to Alicante and from there he caught a bus.
We picked him up from Benidorm station and had s lovely meal and a couple of drinks.
Lovely lad. Speaks English better than myself and is looking forward to coming across and seeing everyone. He thinks he'll be across maybe quite soon in the next couple of months but will confirm that.
I took photos and videos but haven't a clue how to post them on here.
See @bluejonnyvimto on twitter for a pic of me and him taken today.

Morning folks.
It’s been a while since I’ve been on the forum.
I’d like to thank everyone who donated to this
I can advise everyone that Jesús (SpanishDale) has booked flights to come and watch Rochdale for the final game of the season at home to Charlton.
It’s been a long time coming but Jesús has had commitments with his family and his studies but has managed to get a window in his busy schedule to come and see the Dale.
He is very grateful for everyone’s generosity.
I will give more details of his arrival nearer the time.
Thank you all again. | | | |

Great to hear that..perhaps the club could allow him to either..
choose MOM on day or draw the lucky number at half time or be one of the mascots on the day..anything that may give us a lucky omen would help!!! | | | |

has a ticket been arranged for Jesus for the Oasis / Liam Gallagher tribute at the end of the game?
I bet he would love to party after the game with all the fans?. | | | |
